Script Find Returns No Values - Stop prompting my users! :o)

Post

I am somewhat new to Filemaker, and I have been working with scripting. I have created a script to look at one field in a record, then it goes to another table and searches for records of the same value. I am using variables to perform the find, and so far I have only gotten it to work by doing the following.

Enter Find Mode[]Set Field[SearchField;$$Variable]

Perform Find[]

I am sure I shouldnt have to do all that, but it doesnt seem to work with the variable for me if I simply do aperform find[] and specify the search criteria.

But that is not my main problem. The main problem is when there is no records containing the same value as $$Variable. The script is then paused and asks the user to Modify Find, Continue, or Cancel the Find. I would like for this script to continue running without prompting the user at any point.Can this be done? If I need to perform the find in another manor, and the find works the same as the sample script above, I would have no problem changing this. Actually I would prefer to simplify this step.
